Paging method (not relevant to Spec-
tralink IP-DECT Server 200/400)
“Paging” is about incoming voice and messaging calls,
where the Spectralink IP-DECT/Virtual IP-DECT Server
has to send out an announcement (through the relevant
Spectralink IP-DECT Base Stations) asking the handset
to chose a base station and start establishing a con-
nection.
Possible values: Default, Multicast, Site based paging,
Zone based paging.
Default value: Default
If having more than 256 base stations connected on a site,
default paging is not enough due to the amount of base sta-
tions. In this situation, if multicast signaling is supported,
multicast is the preferred paging method. Other paging
methods are site based paging and zone based paging.
On a site with heavy voice/messaging load, it is recom-
mended to use Zone based paging instead of using mul-
ticast signaling.
If Multicast is enabled, this will impose multicast support
for the network. For more information, see "Using Mult-
icast Signaling for Paging" on page161.
Note: For more information about deciding which paging
method to use, see "Spectralink IP-DECT Base Station
Configuration Methods - Considerations" on page158.
Please read the information carefully before continuing
and ensure correct deployment of the base stations.
